we should have someone from "the washington post" within us. thanks for being with us. i want to start with you. what do you think, what will be the final story on early voting's role in this election? >> i think the story is going that republicans wound up turning out as many early voters as the president. and the reason i say that is that the restrictions on early voting in florida have produce ad lot of anger particularly in black churches who took full advantage of the full days they had out of anger at the impression that republicans are trying to limit the right to vote. >> i know you did some digging specifically into some early voting numbers in ohio. talk to me a little bit about that. what did you find? >> we found if you look at the counties that went for obama last time there's a lead before 900,000 to 400,000. if those voting patterns hold and they could break for romney you just don't know but if they hold it shows incredible mobilization among obama voters. i know we're short on time. there's a sentiment that was touched on last time they were trying to s

he joins us by phone. congressman, good afternoon to you. >> thank for having me on. >> acting cia director mike morell will testify, not general petraeus. are you going to insist that the general testify despite his resignation? >> i'm a member of the intelligence committee. i certainly believe that general petraeus should testify. now, it doesn't have to be this week but it has to be very soon thereafter because if general petraeus is the only one who would be at the center of what happened with benghazi involving the cia, involving theed a handwriting, he would have the pieces of the puzzle and mike morell, he's the number two person but general petraeus came to the capitol hill to brief the intelligence committee afterwards. he was at the eye of the storm. so i think ultimately but really sooner rather than later general petraeus will have to be a witness and to me he's an essential witness and, if not, we will not get to the bottom of what happened in benghazi. to say that, he's an outstanding patriot

>> thank you for spending time with us, sir. i want to update you on one thing. 15 bodice recoves recovered her staten island. police continue to search for the two little boys who were knocked out of their mother's arms by rushing flood waters. i talked to a police officer a little while ago. they told me there's nothing new to report with regards to that. we have seen a great deal of damage over the course of the morning. one of the things that struck us most, the gas line. i think i heard you mention this at the top of your hour. we stopped counting at 100 cars. we talked to a gentleman who had been waiting for three and a half hours for gas this morning. of course, the fear at this point is when some of those folks at the end of the line get to the beginning of the line, they'll be out of gas. we'll continue to keep updating you. that's the latest for now. >> nbc's craig melvin. appreciate it. thank you, sir. >>> this morning, 3/4 of the residents on long island woke up without power. joining me now live on the phone is new
